[Opensim-users] Opensim-users Digest, Vol 25, Issue 41

[dz]

Thanks for the back-tracking Robert...

As for the increased stability obtained by removing physical movement.  I
don't think removing functionality from the only "capable" physics engine is
a good plan.   A significant amount of the content that I am interested in
requires that basic ODE functions are available,  and not crippled for
periods which apparently extend across 2 point revs...   Now that ODE is the
default physics engine,  I hope whoever decided to "fix it" can revisit this
issue...  It seems like a very poor plan to impress new users by handing
them an intentionally crippled default.
